Well folks, NaNoWriMo is nearly upon us—nine days! And you’ll be relieved to know that I have my lucky coffee cup. Here’s the deal. I started this challenge in 2005 and only finished 25,000 words… Because, I was writing in longhand. The writing wasn’t hard, but the word count was a Bitch. The next year […]

You like that eye-grabbing title? Now, if I could only keep the content as compelling. You see, that’s the job of a writer! That’s not really where I wanted to go with this. See, I spent time this weekend thinking about the nature and nurture of this new mantle I have donned as a “writer” […]
